No, as has been explained... whether in "a layman's language" or any other tongue, the nofollow *attribute* added to a link/anchor *tag* is simply a piece of information which the crawling spiders, and the search engines for which they work, add to their data about the site being crawled and the link which contains the nofollow attribute. At the moment the data is being used by Google to control/tweak PR leaking, though what they actually choose to do with that data could change at any time, but it definitely does not prevent spiders from actually following those links.
